Story to Live By...

Just sharing you a story with a warm lesson that we must see...

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was alwaysthere for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only seethe world, I will marry you.'

One day,someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandagescame off, she was able to see everything, including herboyfriend.

He asked her, 'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' Thegirl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. Thesight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expectedthat. The thought of looking at them the rest of her lifeled her to refuse to marry him.

Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to hersaying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for beforethey were yours, they were mine.'

This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.Only a very few remember what life was like before, and whowas always by their side in the most painful situations.

Life Is aGift

Todaybefore you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't speak.

Beforeyou complain about the taste of your food - Think of someonewho has nothing to eat.

Beforeyou complain about your husband or wife - Think of someonewho's crying out to GOD for a companion.

Todaybefore you complain about life - Think of someone who diedtoo early on this earth.

Beforeyou complain about your children - Think of someone whodesires children but they're barren.

Beforeyou argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean orsweep - Think of the people who are living in the streets.

Beforewhining about the distance you drive Think of someone whowalks the same distance with their feet.

And whenyou are tired and complain about your job - Think of theunemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had yourjob.

Butbefore you think of pointing the finger or condemninganother - Remember that not one of us is without sin.

And whendepressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile onyour face and think: you're alive and stillaround.

there are so many people in this world who aren't happy with the life they have... they always want to have more and when they get something more, they again crave for something more... never ending. it's difficult to really understand why. like what was said on the post... they already have a job but instead of being thankful, they aren't happy about it and so on.

thanks shelo for sharing this one ha. it's so inspiring
